Edit: After more digging I found out the bug is actually with Systemd so I'm just going to close this.

Compatibility Report

Multiple Games:

  • Skyrim
  • Dishonored
  • Alan Wake
  • Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris
  • Ty The Tasmanian Tiger

These are just the 5 that I tested

System Information

  • GPU: Nvidia 970
  • Driver/LLVM version: nvidia 435.21
  • Kernel version: 5.2.14
  • Link to full system information report as Gist:
  • Proton version: 4.11-4

I confirm:

  • [ ] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • [-] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

Multiple games have broken DS4 support in latest proton version. Games that worked with 4.2 don't seem to switch to using the controller and keep the "desktop" mode (where the touchpad acts like a touchpad). Games affected seem to be games that only have Xbox controller support so it might have to do with the recent change to passing gamepads through to the game directly.

Reproduction

  1. plug in a DS4 controller
  2. set the Steam Input setting of a selected game to 'forced on'
  3. play selected game
